Someone who "looks good for their age" has managed to shave a few years off. Someone who has procedures to look 20 years younger, looks ridiculous - to everyone.

Worst things people do at gigs:

Sing along with bits that don't have words
Throw drinks or piss
Set off flares
Stand in front of you
Stood facing you, back facing band talking on the phone to your mate who is probably as big an arsehole as you are, if not worse
FaceTiming

I once waited on Boris Johnson at a dinner in Bristol. I poured some of the drip tray into his pint. It's the closest I've come to national service. You're welcome.

Just replaced one medium sized egg in a box of 6 with a large one whilst shopping in Sainsburys. Small wins keep me happy.

Marketing people don't get enough hate. They're no better than tabloid journalists and estate agents.

The perfect time to commit a murder is Halloween. No one would bat an eyelid if you were walking around, covered in blood, holding a knife, carrying a corpse wrapped in bin bags bound with gaffer tape.

If someone pulls off a flawless, victimless heist, like stealing from the Louvre with no injuries, no chaos, just pure skill. Honestly? Fair play.

If you pay a subscription fee for a doorbell/snitch camera you are a paranoid lunatic with too much disposable income.

McDonald's Monopoly = loot boxes for grown ups. Always just one sticker away so you need to buy another meal.

TV has become obsessed with the mawkish, prurient milking of human emotions. I want instructive programming not people weeping about their "emotional journey" all the time.

If they sold shots of Gavison in pubs it'd be a best seller.

Pronouncing the Spanish C or Z with a 'th' sound, whilst technically correct, makes you sound like a prick. Barthelona, Choritho etc. The only exception is Ibiza.

It's bad enough that Christmas takes up all of December and some of November if you are a really sad case. However, now it appears that some people want to celebrate Halloween for the whole of October. Grow the fuck up.

If your children are speaking with American accents, they're having too much screen time.

Your child is not the brother or sister of your pet dog. And you aren't the dog's mummy or daddy. Stop saying it you perverts.

Surely the escalating pace of major cyber attacks shutting production lines down all around the world should tell us we either need to take cyber security much, much more seriously than we currently do, or that we should stop connecting literally everything to the internet.

Ageing is realising shoe comfort matters. I used to wear pointy formal shoes for work, but upgraded to Doc Martens. Now realised they're too heavy and got some Skechers. Old.

When I turn on my TV I don't want to select a profile, see a load of adverts and apps then press guide then scroll to a channel and press select. I want it to immediately tune to BBC1 or ITV like TVs did successfully for decades. This is not progress.
